She had the eyes of a goddess And the voice of an angel But I could not save her In fact I think I gave her More pain than she had When she first came to me Crooked and scarred Out of touch with reality
I made her scars thicker She purged with intensity You see I thought I was the savior Of her self destructive behavior Yet I was but the arrow That pierced through her ankle She sliced at her thighs Oh how the wounds rankled
I've learned not to dwell On days that have passed Those who focus on the past Will not for long last But I can still see The hurt in her eyes When I tossed her away When she saw through my lies
I had the eyes of a demon And the voice of a monster She could not save me In fact I think she gave me More pain than I had When I first came to her When she seduced my heart With a tender whisper
